EMA Blog: Business Intelligence and IT Management

During this year’s research for the 2012 EMA Workload Automation (WLA) Radar Report, we encountered a number of very interesting core findings. These research results mostly originated from dozens of conversations with end customers, who have been using WLA software for many years and sometimes even for decades. WLA, by definition, is a mature discipline, as it started during the beginning of mainframe times, then became more complex when organizations adopted distributed computing, and today is faced with a new challenge: the cloud. Please take a look at what our research showed as the most important aspects of a modern WLA solution. The following vendors were included in the report: Arcana, ASCI, ASG, BMC,CA Technologies,Cisco, Flux, MVP Systems, Network Automation, ORSYP, Stonebranch,UC4.

For our Enterprise IT clients, we deliver in-depth research and practical advice to help them make better decisions, succeed with key projects, and align IT with business objectives. For our IT Vendor clients, we provide the deep insight required to build the right product, reach the right prospects, and establish credibility in the marketplace. This means that – unlike many firms – EMA is both in tune with how real-world IT organizations are applying IT and data management technology to solve business problems and intimately familiar with the pros and cons of available vendor solutions. Our dual focus arms us with the insight to help both audiences be more successful!
